Maybe the best shot of the whole weekend in L.A. I was cruising up and down Sepulveda waiting for the next heavy when I saw this beauty in the downwind leg off the Santa Monica VOR. I waited and timed it just right and climbed up to the top of the 96th Street Bridge when she was on short final. I snapped this photo of Korean Air Cargo as she passed over the center lanes of Sepulveda Blvd. This photo is made possible only because this 747F was on final to runway Two-Four left instead of the right side like most arriving traffic.

Awesome! Wish I was driving down that highway when that bird came over!
Wow...Simply unique! I love it. Nice shot Dave
There is a bus stop around the corner from this bridge and I use it to blend in. Lots of people wait here for the different route buses and I do not stand out with only a camera and wide angle lens. You have to time it and shoot and run. This shot was a quick dash up the stairs, compose the shot and take then dash back down to the corner. Total time is like 30 seconds.
